Maybe you don’t care about it right now because you are still playing dragon quest IX. But you will probably get bored in about 1 month. Thanks to Atlus because they are planning to release Etrian Odyssey 3 at 21 September 2010. The battle system is similar to Etrian Odyssey 1 and 2. If you haven’t played those, then it battle system resemble to classic dragon quest game/Shin Megami Tensei. Check the trailer for further combat system.
